‘Access Hollywood, ‘Karamo & “The Steve Wilkos Show’ Canceled As NBCUniversal Stops Producing Syndicated Shows

A major shakeup is hitting daytime television as NBCUniversal pulls the plug on several of its long-running syndicated shows.

The company has confirmed it will stop producing Access Hollywood, Karamo, and The Steve Wilkos Show as part of a broader move away from first-run syndicated programming.

The decision comes as NBCUniversal shuts down production of its remaining first-run syndicated shows, marking a significant shift for the company’s television strategy.

Despite the cancellations, NBCUniversal will continue distributing library episodes of the programs through its syndication arm.

The move affects programming produced by NBCUniversal Syndication Studios and effectively ends the current production runs of the shows.

The cancellations signal a major change in the daytime TV landscape as traditional syndicated talk and entertainment programs continue facing pressure from streaming platforms and changing viewer habits.
